I think Micah sounds awesome-- his other main role is in the as-yet-unreleased Blassreiter, so other than the brief preview he shared in the interview, I hadn't heard him voice-act before. Laura Bailey sounds pretty good too, IMO. Any thoughts?

Doesn't sound too bad. I think Maka is lacking a tiny bit of the personality, but often times you find in dubs it takes a few episodes for the actor to really bring the personality out.

They do pretty well in sticking to the original lines and they keep the terminology. I'm interested in seeing how they handle Liz and Patty. As well as Blair. I would like to get this manga series, that is being released this month; but I'm waiting to see if they make any alterations to the art.
